I’m not kidding when I say the teams I root for give me much more heartbreak than joy, especially over the last few years. However right now I’m going to enjoy the fact the Mets are in first place in the National League East and more importantly the Ranger have a realistic chance of winning the Stanley Cup for the first time since 1994. This euphoric feeling might not last long but I might as well smell the roses while I can. 

CBA might have the most impressive high school pitcher-catcher battery in the state in juniors Luca Dalatri and Brandon Martorano who have both already made verbal commitments to the University of North Carolina.  Dalatri, who made All-State as a sophomore, tossed a 3-hitter and struck out a career-high 14 in a 4-0 win over Howell Thursday.  Martorano went 3-4 with a home run and 2 RBI’s as the Colts improved to 7-1.

Pitching has propelled Donovan Catholic into the thick of the Class B South race.  The Griffins topped Manchester 5-1 Thursday behind Kyle Malloy, who allowed just one hit and an unearned run.  In their last five games the pitching staff has allowed just one earned run.  Donovan Catholic is 5-2 overall and 3-1 in the division.

Eagles fans have not forgotten that Chris Christie is a Cowboys fan who likes to suck up to team owner Jerry Jones.  Thursday the New Jersey governor was in Atlantic City for the opening of a Bass Pro store and he was greeted by boos from many Eagle fans who also shouted “EAGLES, EAGLES.”  Christie said he enjoyed the fact that so many Philly fans were on hand.
